GREAT COMMISSION: THE HEART BEAT OF KINGDOM BUSINESS

LUKE 10: 1-20

Jesus sent out 70 disciples to preach the gospel as well as empowered them for the task of spreading the good news with authority over Satan and his agent. This same empowerment does not end with the 70 then, it continues to extend and transcend process till date. This is called the great commission, why? Because it is the main subject of the Kingdom of God, God does not joke with evangelism. As a child of God you don’t need money to do this, if there is no way you are expanding the kingdom, please embark on evangelism. This is where the power of God to salvation begins.

ROMANS 1:16
(16)      “I will not be ashamed of the gospel
For it is the power of God unto Salvation
to everyone having faith, to the Jews first,
and also to the Greek”

LUKE 10:18
(18)      “At that he said to them I see Satan already fallen
like lightening from heaven.
(19)      Look! I have given you the authority to trample
under foot serpents and scorpion and overall
the power of the enemy and nothing at all harm
you”

Where does this Powers lies? It lies in preaching the good news about the Kingdom of heaven. You cannot help in expanding kingdom without being empowered from above because every perfect gift is from above.
JAMES 1:17
(17)      “Every good and perfect gift comes from above,
coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights,
who does not change like shifting shadows.

When God empowers you to succeed, you are unbeatable and a dangerous weapon in the hand of Almighty God through His Son Jesus Christ. God uses you to bring order on earth according to your faith. So let us learn to spread the gospel as well as imitate the life of Christ as we change from Glory to glory.
